Henning Saul commented on PDFBOX-1049:
--------------------------------------
The following check in PDFont seems to handle that situation... Not sure
whether this is a good idea, though.
public float getFontWidth( int charCode )
{
float width = -1;
int firstChar = getFirstChar();
int lastChar = getLastChar();
if (charCode >= firstChar && charCode <= lastChar)
{
List<Float> widths = getWidths();
// widths might be null in some cases?
if(widths != null)
width = widths.get(charCode-firstChar).floatValue();
> NPE in PDFont.getFontWidth()
